How can I be sure my child is well socialized?

Homeschoolers are out in the world and have many opportunities to interact with people in real life situations. Homeschoolers have exposure to people of all ages doing all sorts of things. The process of socialization means learning how to be in the world, learning how to navigate obstacles, and learning how to make affiliations. As for socializing? Activities, clubs, family, friends, sports, jobs, volunteer work—there are many opportunities for homeschoolers to socialize!

WHPA provides information about homeschooling in Wisconsin. WHPA does not provide specific legal advice to any specific individuals in the context of any specific matters. It is the responsibility of each homeschool administrator/parent or guardian to read original source material and make decisions on compliance for themselves. When you file the PI-1206 Homeschool Report with the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction, you take full responsibility for understanding and complying with the laws outlined on that form. WHPA does not endorse or provide curriculum suggestions or specific materials for any particular educational approach.
